Summaries for Kaposiform Hemangioendothelioma

About this section
NIH Rare Diseases : 54 The following summary is from Orphanet, a European reference portal for information on rare diseases and orphan drugs.Orpha Number: 2122Disease definitionKaposiform hemangioendothelioma is a very rare, aggressive, vascular tumor manifesting in the neonatal period or in infancy as cutaneous vascular tumors to large infiltrative lesions.Visit the Orphanet disease page for more resources.

MalaCards based summary : Kaposiform Hemangioendothelioma, also known as congenital cutaneous multifocal kaposiform hemangioendothelioma, is related to hemangioendothelioma and capillary hemangioma. An important gene associated with Kaposiform Hemangioendothelioma is GNA14 (G Protein Subunit Alpha 14), and among its related pathways/superpathways are Phospholipase-C Pathway and p70S6K Signaling. The drugs Prednisolone phosphate and Propranolol have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include endothelial, skin and bone, and related phenotypes are Decreased human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) strain AD169 replication and cardiovascular system
